DESCRIPTION:
DVD Player Fundamentals provides a most pleasant path to enlightenment, covering nearly every aspect of this exciting new technology. From the Back Cover Digital video discs appeared in stores four years ago, and they will soon dominate the market, replacing audio CDs, videotapes, laser discs, and CD-ROMs as the standard for home entertainment and desktop computing. Want to know how DVD technologies work? Then you've found the right book. As a staff member at Fort Hays State University in Kansas, Ross has served in numerous capacities, including manager of microcomputer services. Author John Ross takes a top-down approach and provides essential theoretical background at every step, thereby ensuring a good grasp of basic electronics. While carefully considering the theory and characteristics of optical disc technologies, this in-depth reference volume also takes a close look at the assemblies and circuits that allow DVD pla
For the professional, specific technical information includes: DVD track structure and disc construction; optical head and lens features and specifications; video signal processing; MPEG-2 technology; audio signal processing; decoding; audio path and reference signals; switch-mode power supply; disc motor servo; focus servo; tracking servo; transverse servo; system control circuits; alignment procedures and level adjustments; and many other related topics.. This volume discusses every aspect of the Digital Versatile Disc, starting with features, specifications, hookup, operation, user error, and more
Far too inaccurate I'm sorry having to say so, but I cannot recommend this book. For most paragraphs, the reader is left to guess what the writer is really trying to say. Additionally, the book has numeral errors, even in the most fundamental data and calculations. A few examples:`The original compact disc [has a] 100-kilobit-per-second data-ransfer rate' (sic, p.
